Cue the nostalgia! For the first time since 1996, the Main Street Electrical Parade rolled through Disneyland on Thursday after leaving Disney World's Magic Kingdom in Florida last October.

"I was here on the last day when it closed 20 years ago and I'm here today the first day it came back," said Trina Blair told The Orange County Register. "There were tears on both days. Tears of sadness back then, but now tears of joy."

The famed nighttime parade debuted in 1972 at Disneyland's Main Street USA and officially returned to the California park last night for a special $95 ticketed event. From the Instagrams those lucky guests posted, it looked totally worth the money to see all the classic characters from old-school favorites like Alice and Wonderland to Pete's Dragon.
